Global Cache GC-SC1 Contact Closure Sensor

The GC-SC1 detects the open-and-closed status of a pair of isolated contacts, such as a relay or switch. It is ideally suited for detecting contact closure on drapery controllers, thermostats, security contacts, and door strikes. The GC-SC1 filters out false triggers associated with typical contact bounce.

Overview

The GC-SC1 detects the open-and-closed status of a pair of isolated contacts, such as a relay or switch. It is ideally suited for detecting contact closure on drapery controllers, thermostats, security contacts, and door strikes.

The device can be plugged directly into the Global Cache GC-100 Network Adapter, which connects the sensor to the network.

Additionally, the GC-SC1 will work with other controllers that provide 5V power and accept digital logic (TTL) input. The GC-SC1 connector is a standard 3.5mm stereo jack.

This sensor can be used with iTach IR connectors in Sensor mode, but due to a design alteration must be connected to the unit with an audio crossover cable. The wires that need to be swapped are the tip and the ring.
